My stereo cost more than some of my cars
I don't think I've ever bought anything interesting for under a fiver. I've made some pretty spectacular eBay purchases for under twenty quid, though.

We've had some great buys at boot sales over the years.
Possibly my favourite was a doll from a 10p box that we sold for £600. Ah, good times.

I bought a pair of Ruark Ikon speakers for about 14 quid.
Handmade by proper cabinet makers, they are. Absolutely gorgeous things.

That doll was a bit spawny.

Yeah, if your speakers are shit, it doesn't matter how good your stereo is.
We've got some rather stunning 6ft flat speakers. They do sound a bit epic.

It's a subjective thing, really. After a certain point you're not going to get much benefit
from throwing money at stereo equipment.

Since the speakers I own are set up in the sitting room, I do like to have things that look good.
